LIFE UPDATE!!

Hello, beautiful people! It feels incredible to finally sit down and reconnect with you after what seems like an eternity. I owe you a heartfelt apology for my unexplained absence, and today, I want to share the rollercoaster of events that led to this unintentional hiatus.

Life has a funny way of keeping us on our toes, doesn’t it? In the hustle and bustle of work and the challenges that come with navigating adulthood, I lost sight of the importance of my blog. The realization hit hard. I had failed to prioritize something that brings me immense joy and connection.

Among the whirlwind of events, one of the highlights of my 2023 was my birthday ceremony, a day filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories. Little did I know that few challenges awaited me, including the intense preparation for the NYSC camp orientation.

I found myself serving at the Agege Iyana-Paja Lagos NYSC camp. The three weeks were a mix of emotions. I met incredible people, unexpectedly reunited with old friends, and formed new connections. It was a bitter-sweet experience that tested my strength to the core.

Unfortunately, my health took a toll during this period. Sickness, mental breakdowns, a pause on self-care routines, darker skin, weight loss, and an environment not conducive to my well-being became my reality. The camp was a challenging chapter that I am still recovering from.

The challenges didn’t end with the camp. A hospital admission followed, accompanied by drips, injections, and the struggle of peeling feet. I found myself at a crossroads, contemplating the direction of my life, and facing the streets of securing a place of primary assignment for NYSC.

I owe you an apology for my inconsistent presence, and I am genuinely sorry for the delay in updating you. But here’s the exciting part. I am back, and this time, it’s for good! I am recommitting to being consistent, and I can’t wait to share the abundance of stories and experiences I have collected during my time away.

Thank you for your patience, understanding and continuous support. Buckle up because there’s a lot of gist to spill, and I am eager to embark on this journey with you once again. Stay tuned, turn on your notifications, and let’s dive into the next chapter together!

With love,

Ifeoluwa Dada
